Hi there, I've been gluten-free for about 7 yrs. now and for almost a year I have been on ww. I've lost 96 lbs. I was morbidly obese! I started at 302 lbs and I'm happy to say I'm now at 206. I've got about 30 lbs left to go. It's getting harder though.

Is anyone else out there doing ww?

Wow, congratulations, that sounds amazing! I used to be on weightwatchers before they diagnosed me with an allergy against gluten, I never realized I was allergic, all I got was terrible stomach ache all the time and I didn

      I will. Thanks. I did just have mg B12 drawn. I should also state that I am already taking a Vit D supplement, as I live in the US in New England sand just about everyone who lives here is deficient, esp during our winters with less exposure to natural sunlight. I was also taking a chewable bariatric vitamin as well because of my food issues related to my cancer treatment (which was many years ago, but there are long term effects.) I just stopped it because I was unable to get any gluten information about it. And it did contain iodine. Is there even a vitamin that doesn’t? I don’t know, but I will check. I also take Calcium and Magnesium in the form of “Rolaids” for leg cramps/spasms, with good effects. Thanks.

      @Itsabit, Ask your doctor for an erythrocyte transkelatose test to measure thiamine.  It's a better measure of thiamine deficiency than a serum test.

      Most toothpastes are naturally gluten-free, but this article may be helpful:

      This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Thank you for your response. It has some good information for me to investigate further. In answer to your question about Vit D, yes, and it was normal. I am having the B12 level done today. Additionally, I am going to have a urine to test for iodine, after a correlation with it to dermatitis herpetiformis was mentioned in another post. I had read that in my research as well. I am praying that I don’t have that! The dietary restrictions, esp when combined with eating gluten free are horrendous! Talk about malnutrition! Anyway, one step, one day at a time. I’m trying not to get ahead of myself. Not easy.
